Giant
A world-famous children's author under threat. A battle of wills in the wake of scandal. And one chance to make amends.
Set in the summer of 1983, just before the release of The Witches, Giant imagines a tense meeting between Roald Dahl and his American and British publishers as they scramble to contain the fallout from his public denunciation of Israel and defence of the Palestinians in a review of a book on the 1982 Lebanon war. Filmed live onstage at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London's West End in 2025.
